{{cleanup}}
Following {{Ash}}’s [[Full Battle]] [[DP132|loss]] against [[Paul]], [[Nurse Joy]] is working overtime to heal all of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}}. {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} try to stay positive, but Ash walks outside to clear his head. Dawn, having dealt with [[DP061|low self-confidence]] once, tries to help, but Brock stops her, letting him go for now. Dawn is left wishing that she could help the injured Pokémon. {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} notices and gets an idea. Piplup makes faces and tries to be funny, which gives Dawn the idea to create a show to cheer Ash up and she runs off to plan.
At [[Lake Acuity]], the projected soul of {{p|Uxie}} appears. Back at the [[Pokémon Center]], all of {{cat|Ash's Pokémon}} try to endure the pain from their injuries as [[Nurse Joy]], {{TP|Nurse Joy|Chansey}} and {{TP|Nurse Joy|Blissey}} work overtime to heal Ash's Pokémon following the [[DP131|overwhelming]] [[DP132|loss]] to [[Paul]]. {{Ash}} and {{ashfr}} watch as Ash's {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} are tended to. {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} try to stay positive, but Ash walks away depressed. Dawn, having dealt with [[DP061|low self-confidence]] once, tries to help, but Brock stops her, letting him go for now.


Outside, {{TRT}}, still [[List of Team Rocket's disguises|disguised]] as the cleanup crew, work to fix the battlefield. {{TP|Jessie|Yanmega}} drops dirt as {{TP|Jessie|Seviper}}, {{TP|James|Carnivine}} and {{TP|Jessie|Wobbuffet}} flatten the field. They discuss the [[Full Battle]], admiring the effort and {{AP|Chimchar|Monferno}}'s [[evolution]] while still slamming Ash for the landslide loss. [[James]] believes Ash is most likely depressed, so [[Jessie]] plots to steal {{AP|Pikachu}} while Ash is too sad to care.

After some deliberation, [[James]] believes Ash is most likely depressed, so [[Jessie]] plots to steal {{AP|Pikachu}} while Ash is too sad to care.


Ash is sprawled out on a grassy field, looking up at the sky as he reflects on the {{pkmn|battle}}. Battle scenes flash through his mind as he remembers {{AP|Gliscor}} battling {{TP|Paul|Torterra}} and getting its tail {{m|Crunch|caught}}, {{p|Weavile}} outrunning {{AP|Staraptor}} and {{AP|Grotle}}'s second loss to {{TP|Paul|Honchkrow}}. Back at the Center, Brock tends to Gliscor, comforting it while it is crying from the bandaging. Dawn watches and wishes that she could help, also feeling the depression. {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} notices and gets an idea. Piplup makes faces and tries to be funny, which gives Dawn the idea to create a show to cheer Ash up and she runs off to plan. Having finished the bandaging and with Ash's Pokémon resting, Nurse Joy, Chansey, Blissey and Brock tidy things up and put the medical supplies away. {{TP|Brock|Happiny}} also helps by giving Brock a first-aid kit to set back on a shelf. When Nurse Joy compliments Brock, he goes crazy as usual, but {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}'s {{m|Poison Jab|impending strike}} causes him to halt his romance and plead with Croagunk. It works and Croagunk walks away. Nurse Joy notices that Monferno is recovering slower than the others. She asks Brock to go into the forest and find [[Cheri Berry|Cheri Berries]].
Having finished the bandaging and with Ash's Pokémon resting, Nurse Joy and her assistants tidy things up and put the medical supplies away. When Nurse Joy compliments Brock, he replies by flirting, but {{TP|Brock|Croagunk}}'s {{m|Poison Jab}} causes him to halt his advance and plead with Croagunk. It works and Croagunk simply walks away. Nurse Joy notices that {{AP|Monferno}} is recovering slower than the others and requests some [[Cheri Berry|Cheri Berries]]. As Brock searches the surrounding forest for the Berries with a bag in hand, he has trouble finding them. He reaches [[Lake Acuity]] and takes in the scenery. He then notices a ripple on the lake and spots a shadow of a Pokémon, {{DL|Lake guardians (anime)|Uxie}}'s projected soul. Before he can run any closer to inspect it, the shadow disappears. As he wonders about what he just saw, he notices an object to his left and glances that way, finding a Cheri Berry bush. While Dawn continues to practice back at the Center, Brock has returned with the Berries, which are then mashed up, and Nurse Joy proceeds to feed Monferno. Joy smiles as Monferno quickly perks up before telling Brock they can relax now.  


As Brock searches for the Berries with a bag in hand, he has trouble finding them and it's apparently taking quite a bit longer than he hoped it would. He reaches Lake Acuity and takes in the scenery. He notices a ripple on the lake and spots a shadow of a Pokémon, Uxie's projected soul. Before he can run any closer to inspect it, the shadow disappears. As he wonders about what he just saw, he notices an object to his left and glances that way, finding a Cheri Berry bush. While Dawn continues to practice back at the Center, Brock returned with the Berries, which are then mashed up, and Nurse Joy proceeds to feed Monferno. Apparently having been discharged, Ash's other Pokémon watch from the window as Monferno reacts to the Berries, quickly perking up. Joy smiles and tells Brock they can relax now as Monferno smiles and waves to the others, who wave and call back happily. Meanwhile, Ash still sulks over his most recent loss to Paul, remembering how {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}} took out half of his [[Party|team]], and how Monferno couldn't defeat {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}} despite having just evolved. He rolls over to his side and notices Pikachu standing beside him, not the least bit upset. His other Pokémon are there as well, all with bandages but are still chirpy and celebrating... however their over-enthusiasm quickly gives way to their exhaustion. Ash is slightly concerned but he starts to laugh, the depression fading away. Ash gets his fighting spirit back, and tells his team that Paul's Pokémon are strong because he raised them to be that way, and now it's time for them to increase {{pkmn|training}} and work longer and harder than ever before. He inspires his Pokémon, all rushing to give him a group hug, knocking him to the ground as everyone laughs together, reaffirming their loyalty and friendship with him. As they head back, Ash's stomach rumbles as he's forgotten to eat earlier in the day, generating another bout of laughter for the Pokémon as they continue on. Team Rocket watches nearby and still believe that Ash is depressed.

When he returns to the Center, everyone has gathered about Brock's sighting. In the Center's small library, Ash and Dawn look up the computer as Brock and Nurse Joy pour over books, having gone through three stacks. She finds an illustration in her book of the [[Lake guardians]] and points out to Brock the one of Uxie, which is the one he saw. He remarks though that it looked like a shadow instead of a physical form. Dawn and Ash remember [[DP001|their]] [[DP078|sightings]] of {{p|Mesprit}} and {{p|Azelf}}. Joy reads that the legend says that all three Pokémon originated from the same egg. Uxie, Mesprit and Azelf are beings that symbolize specific traits that just happens to correspond to Brock, Dawn and Ash respectively: Wisdom, Emotion, and Willpower. The three Pokémon are said to balance [[Sinnoh]], and Brock wonders if their sightings are more than coincidence.

Team Rocket hides in a darkened storeroom of the Pokémon Center, weaving an electric-proof net to capture Pikachu, while Ash and the others gather to watch Dawn's show in the lobby, Nurse Joy mentioning that Dawn prepared it mainly to cheer up Ash and his Pokémon. Dawn opens the show with {{TP|Dawn|Mamoswine}}, {{TP|Dawn|Buneary}} and {{TP|Dawn|Pachirisu}}. Buneary and Pachirisu jump onto Mamoswine and make faces, bouncing on and around Mamoswine before stretching Mamoswine's face, with Mamoswine posing. Ash and the others laugh as expected. Piplup waltzes out in a clown outfit, jumping up and hitting its head on the ceiling. Buneary and Pachirisu juggle Piplup and stretch its face, with one more Mamoswine pose thrown in, sticking its large tongue out.
Later Ash and the others gather to watch Dawn's show in the lobby. Nurse Joy mentioning that Dawn prepared it mainly to cheer up Ash and his Pokémon.

Blurb

After losing a tough battle against Paul, Ash and his Pokémon are recovering at the Pokémon Center near Lake Acuity. Ash’s Pokémon are on the road to recovery, but Ash is still brooding over his loss. Team Rocket thinks this could be the perfect time to steal Ash’s Pikachu: why not kick a Trainer while he’s down? Ash’s friends, on the other hand, are doing their best to help out. Dawn and Piplup are planning to cheer Ash up and Brock is out by the lake, looking for Cheri Berries to help heal Ash’s Monferno. While Brock searches for berries, he sees a strange being hover over the water and then vanish.

Back at the Pokémon Center, Nurse Joy thinks the strange being was the Legendary Uxie. That makes the third mysterious lake Pokémon that Ash and his friends have spotted! And now, after a Pokémon pep talk, Ash seems cheerful again—but Dawn thinks he’s just putting on a brave front. So it’s time for Dawn’s Pokémon Circus, a show where Dawn’s Pokémon clown around and make funny faces. Sure enough, Ash starts laughing at their antics, but all laughter stops once Team Rocket takes over the stage.

After Team Rocket calls Ash a loser, they grab his Pikachu and run. Ash and his team work together to chase them down—when Seviper uses Haze, Buizel clears the smoke, then Grotle and Staraptor knock out Yanmega and Carnivine. To finish it off, Monferno uses Mach Punch to knock Team Rocket down so Pikachu can escape. As Team Rocket argues over whose bad idea this was, Ash and his team act as one to blast the three thieves into the sky. Ash is finally feeling back to his old self, and even Dawn has something to look forward to: her next Contest in Lilypad Town!

Plot

Following Ash’s Full Battle loss against Paul, Nurse Joy is working overtime to heal all of Ash's Pokémon. Dawn and Brock try to stay positive, but Ash walks outside to clear his head. Dawn, having dealt with low self-confidence once, tries to help, but Brock stops her, letting him go for now. Dawn is left wishing that she could help the injured Pokémon. Piplup notices and gets an idea. Piplup makes faces and tries to be funny, which gives Dawn the idea to create a show to cheer Ash up and she runs off to plan.

Outside, Team Rocket, still disguised as the cleanup crew, work to fix the battlefield after Ash’s match against Paul. After some deliberation, James believes Ash is most likely depressed, so Jessie plots to steal Pikachu while Ash is too sad to care.

Having finished the bandaging and with Ash's Pokémon resting, Nurse Joy and her assistants tidy things up and put the medical supplies away. When Nurse Joy compliments Brock, he replies by flirting, but Croagunk's Poison Jab causes him to halt his advance and plead with Croagunk. It works and Croagunk simply walks away. Nurse Joy notices that Monferno is recovering slower than the others and requests some Cheri Berries. As Brock searches the surrounding forest for the Berries with a bag in hand, he has trouble finding them. He reaches Lake Acuity and takes in the scenery. He then notices a ripple on the lake and spots a shadow of a Pokémon, Uxie's projected soul. Before he can run any closer to inspect it, the shadow disappears. As he wonders about what he just saw, he notices an object to his left and glances that way, finding a Cheri Berry bush. While Dawn continues to practice back at the Center, Brock has returned with the Berries, which are then mashed up, and Nurse Joy proceeds to feed Monferno. Joy smiles as Monferno quickly perks up before telling Brock they can relax now.

Meanwhile, Ash still sulks over his most recent loss to Paul, remembering how Ursaring took out half of his team, and how Monferno couldn't defeat Electabuzz despite having just evolved. He rolls over to his side and notices Pikachu standing beside him, not the least bit upset. His other Pokémon are there as well, all with bandages but are still chirpy and celebrating. However their over-enthusiasm quickly gives way to their exhaustion. Ash is slightly concerned but he starts to laugh. Ash gets his fighting spirit back, and tells his team that Paul's Pokémon are strong because he raised them to be that way, and now it's time for them to increase training by working longer and harder than ever before. He inspires his Pokémon, all rushing to give him a group hug, knocking him to the ground as everyone laughs together, reaffirming their loyalty and friendship with him. As they head back, Ash's stomach rumbles as he's forgotten to eat earlier in the day, generating another bout of laughter for the Pokémon as they continue on.

When he returns to the Center, everyone is gathered around to discuss Brock's sighting. In the Center's small library, Ash and Dawn look up the computer as Brock and Nurse Joy pour over books, having gone.
